call me crazy but the cops shooting 11 times in response to a single shot doesnt sound that crazy to me... especially if there were multiple cops involved
they hear/see a shot and yea they are going to assume they're under fire and at that point they are going to try to kill whoever is doing the shooting i can only assume cops are like anyone else and are going to take threats against their life pretty seriously and deal with them severely. i know 11 shots vs 1 might sound excessive.. but tbh i remember in florida in one of the gangfights there was some haitians that followed a car holding 2 rival gang members into a parking lot and lit the car up with 70+ rounds from two combat rifles... and that somehow only resulted in 1 gang member dead and the other one getting away |

Yeah, that's a fair point. This isn't a particularly safe neighborhood but last night was out of the norm. I feel referring to it as a shootout is a bit ridiculous. Who knows what actually went down, but I don't believe the suspect actually intended on shooting at the multiple cops that had them surrounded and blocked in. It sounds more like an accident than anything else.

Jwb has a good point, most cops are trained to put 2-3 rounds into someone who has a gun/shooting at them. And if they've already shot at officers once, they'll do it twice. But on the flip side, too, just because 11 shots are fired, doesn't mean that they all found their target. Those 2-3 are an "at least" but always until they stop coming. I know that I have put 31 rounds into someone because after 30 they were still coming. Although that was in combat so slightly different circumstances.
